Pita Jungle

Freaking awesome food.
TONS of plant based options, too. They’re amazing. I definitely recommend the caramelized cauliflower with tahini as an appetizer (it can be shared by 2 – 3 well).
My favorite thing to eat there is the falafel wrap, because it’s amazing. The garlic potatoes and garlic mushrooms are also great as sides. Delicious food, and amazing pitas.

I ordered something for pick up but when i got there to pick it up i decided that I wanted to eat there. The only thing was i brought my dog with me for the ride. I asked if it was ok to have her with me on the patio. The obliged. This place gets better every time

I went here for lunch after a morning of medical tests. I had to fast through breakfast so I was starving. The falafel pita and grilled veggies hit the spot. Ethan the server was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious. Warning — the grilled veggies have quite a bit of garlic in them. I definitely needed a mint after that. The pita was delicious — great flavor in the falafel on chewy soft pita bread.
The thing that made Pita Jungle lose a star was their bathroom — the water in the sink doesn’t stay on unless you’re holding it down and the soap came out of the dispenser so forcefully it spattered on my shirt — neither are deal-​breakers, but things I noted.

I have been going to Pita Jungle since their original location opened which is located on Apache Boulevard. I have never, ever had a bad meal there. Their servings are generous, the prices are very decent for the quality of the food and the freshness of it, and if you have not been there for happy hour which is incredibly inexpensive, you really should try. Almost all the plates are between 1 and $ 3 and three or four will be very filling. I go there at least once a month, and I cannot recommend the chicken shawarma pita sandwich enough. Staff is friendly and very attentive, and while the location is not perfect because you look at a parking lot or Southern Avenue if you’re sitting outside, at least they do have comfortable outside seating with sprinklers in the summer and heaters in the winter. Overall, if you go there and have a bad meal, I would be incredibly surprised. The Ray Road location has an outside seating area which looks at the lake, and the inside is very pleasant as are all the staff. The only thing I am not crazy about with the Southern Avenue location is that it is quite noisy in there and the acoustics are not good, although they have placed soundproof boards around the walls to dampen the noise.

Been here a couple of times. Location is a bit bohemian for lack of a better description, but that is not a bad thing. It has its charm. Service is generally good and what can be expected from this type of restaurant. Last week we had small hummus as an appetizer, which was a nice little starter to our lunch. I had the falafel pita and a side of beans. My lunch partner had the vegetarian burger with garlic roasted potatoes. The pita was good, although I don’t like the added pickles (i forgot to ask to not include them) and had to ask for the tahini sauce, which normally comes with it. The beans were very good. Nice flavor, vegetarian, more of a stew really. My partner enjoyed the burger, but commented that it was a tad bit too spicy for him, and he loves hot Indian food. Overall a nice alternative to fast food and decent service.

I come to AZ about 3 times a year for work and always make a stop at Pita Jungle and it’s absolutely amazing! It’s even better if you’re vegetarian as they have so many vegetarian options. They literally have everything and everything is always fresh, tasty and presented very well. They have lots of hummus and other dips, soups, sandwiches, wraps, burgers, salads both cold and grilled options, main plated dishes… literally everything! They also have a full bar with a great HH starting at 3pm with drink specials and lots of small tapas ranging $ 1-​$ 3.
In the past I’ve had several salads, hummus and soups. This week I landed in PHX at 6pm, worked the next day til 2 and of course I made a stop on my way to the airport. Yesterday I had the seared ahi tuna and hummus starter. I wasn’t expected the tuna to be merged into the hummus but it tasted great! I also had the caramelized cauliflower with tahini, I only had a few bites of this as I didn’t realize it was fried. I enjoyed a nice cold Diet Pepsi and my server Dargen was nice enough to give me one for the road as well! I’ll be back in AZ in a few months and will definitely be back here or to one of the other locations they have throughout the city!

Hands down best Pita Jungle location I have been to. Definitely give it a try if you have been scorned by other locations. Ethan, our server was funny and attentive, food was actually prepared with care and with presentation in mind. Definitely recommend and will be back.

Sooooo happy I found this place! Yummers and everyone there is so nice and it’s healthy

Walk in and order the The cilantro jalapeño hummus you will not be disappointed! The chicken tikka masala is always my go to main dish! The food always prepared perfectly and service is always great!

The best hummus in town. All of their food is delicious. I had some sort of chicken salad before as well and it was huge. Enough for left overs! Only once I had a waitress that wasn’t the nicest and that was a long time ago. Staff is very kind and helpful.

Luv the food here, especially the gyros. Friendly, laid-​back atmosphere. I’m a frequent flyer

Ahhh just got my order (via post mates) and it looks so good!!! Then I ate it and it was good. Just as suspected. I gotta always have the garlic potatoes with my order. And don’t forget the extra pitas!

The staff is extremely friendly and very attentive to your needs.
I love the hummus it was absolutely delicious. The pitas are huge! Great place for a relaxing atmosphere.
They did get my order wrong but fortunately they fixed it in the way I wanted. I ate half of my pita before I realized it didn’t have the right toppings but they fixed it and stuffed it this time. The manager has the best customer service I’ve ever seen!
The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because it is a little slow on getting the food out but it’s totally worth the wait.
My boyfriend and I were fighting over the rice pudding. Best I’ve ever tasted! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to chill back and have a healthy treat. Oh they do serve alcohol didn’t try it though.

Always a good meal at Pita Jungle. I do enjoy their humus. They have a great fire roasted chicken with spinach. The only think I haven’t cared for is their wraps here. Laid back, cultured ambiance and they have a good happy hour. Always good for a healthier bite to eat.

I’m impressed! I was visiting Phoenix, and a friend recommended grabbing lunch here. I ordered the seared ahi, and it was really, REALLY good! I was amazed that one could get seafood that good at a Mediterranean establishment, in the middle of the desert. The place was very crowded, which is testament tot he quality of the food. I will definitely return to Pita Jungle the next time I’m in Phoenix.

Always a delicious, kinda healthy meal option. Very friendly to the vegan/​vegetarian population. I have enjoyed many different things at PJ. My favorite has to be the falafel. I enjoy adding their spicy chicken to salads. Their pita bread is always light delicious and very fresh.
I’m truly a fan. I to to the various Pita Jungles across the valley several times a year.

Great place to stop by after classes at MCC! Baba ghanoush and the chicken dishes are the best choices. Service is average but food is always great. The baklava is super sweet. Servers are nice and there are a lot of students and professors that frequent during the week.

Oh my! I cannot believe that I had never experienced all they have to offer. To be honest many people had told me that they liked Pita Jungle. But, they never told me the true details. For some reason I just never thought I needed to go here.
But, my friend was here visiting from Denver and she said that she wanted to go there as there were none in Denver.
I agreed to go. How bad could it be, plus I had never been there before.
We drove past the one on University, But there is never anywhere to park over there, so I said, «let’s go to the one on Southern». I drive by it all the time.
Anyway, long story short. It was beautiful outside on this day, so we sat on the Patio, which was really nice.
Our server was an amazing young man, who was happy to answer all our questions, even though he was also very busy. His name was David and he was wonderful.
The food was absolutely divine! Every piece of it. I had Coconut Curry soup, which was magical, just a cup which was a large serving.
I also got Hummus with Ahi Tuna. It was made to perfection. My friend got Broiled Chicken Pita, which she said was divine as well! We also shared a Spanakpita which was amazing.
The food here is wonderful! I cannot believe that I had waited so many years to visit it.
Proving that things may not always be what you think. So you should always give everything a good try. Bathrooms were clean and so was the restaurant inside and out on the Patio as well.
Lots of nice parking.

LOVE Pita Jungle… since their humble beginnings on Apache Boulevard in Tempe! My all time favorite dish is the wood fired chicken on a bed of spinach! My husband always selects the hot Pita with Mediterranean roasted schwarma! They also have the very best garlic dip and I ask for Greek Pita to go with it! Ambiance is very hip and the clientele reaches all demographics! One of our favorites and they have locations all over the valley now (when in Cali we make a point of going to the Newport Beach location)!

The food is good and the ambience is unique but the overall experience usually leaves me wondering why they just can’t pull it all together. The staff is friendly but lax, which usually means that you’ll have a great server who just isn’t that attentive. Drinks go unfilled and if you ask for a side you may be done with your meal before it comes. If your not in a hurry and go to spend time sitting and chatting with friends you’ll probably really enjoy yourself. The food selection is a bit limited for my liking but comes out well prepared and tasty.
